Your quote:
“someone was found not guilty but the civil forfeiture case is against the property, not you, so losing your home or car or money isn’t considered double jeopardy.”

But how can money, an inanimate, non sentient object, be guilty of anything? It needs a human actor to do anything. And if the human that owns and controls it is not guilty, then logically, the money or object is also not guilty. if I didn’t do something, then my money didn’t do it either.
Asset forfeiture is corruption.

Asset forfeiture is corruption.

This is what it boils down to.
But there are many who have swallowed the lie that the government [and its actions] are good if they can say it's legal.
